πŸ’… nand_do_write_oob(9) β€” the "NAND write out-of-band" one (Kernel API Manual, bestie)

okay so you found the kernel API manual page for nand_do_write_oob, and honestly? iconic choice. let's get into it 🫢


✨ NAME ✨

nand_do_write_oob β€” [MTD Interface] NAND write out-of-band, periodt.


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

int nand_do_write_oob (struct nand_chip *chip , loff_t to , struct
       mtd_oob_ops *ops );

like, that's the whole vibe. three args, one int coming back at you ✨


🌸 ARGUMENTS 🌸

  • chip β€” the NAND chip object itself, aka the main character πŸ‘‘
  • to β€” the offset you're writing to, literally where the magic happens
  • ops β€” the oob operation description structure, aka the little instruction card that says what we're doing

πŸ’– DESCRIPTION πŸ’–

NAND write out-of-band. that's it, that's the whole description ngl β€” short and mysterious, we love a minimal queen πŸ’…


πŸ”₯ SEE ALSO πŸ”₯

bestie. bestie. sit down. the SEE ALSO list on this one is long long, like it's giving "linked to the entire NAND subsystem" energy 😭 but every single one of these is real and you're gonna get through them:

Kernel file ./drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_base.c

ngl that's like a whole friend group πŸ’€ but they're all in ./drivers/mtd/nand/raw/nand_base.c, so if you need the lore, that's where it lives.

πŸŒΈπŸŽ€πŸ’œ and that's the page!! this came out of ./drivers/mtd/nand/raw, dated October 2026, and it's the nand_do_write_oob(9) page β€” go write some out-of-band data, bestie, you've got this πŸ’…βœ¨πŸ¦‹
